[JDEV] SRV record and sending S2S

Hopefully this will change though...

At the moment in my client I'm allowing the user to enter a different
server to connect to from the one in their JID but at some point I'm
going to try and implement SRV records at some time...

Is there any reason for S2S using a different port to C2S? Would it be
possible for a server to accept client connections on it's S2S port?
